Hi All, I am planning an installation of Debian and solicit recommendations for the size of a separate /var logical partition. I plan to use apt-get to install packages and to upgrade my distribution when appropriate. In section 3.3 of the Debian FAQ, there is a recommendation for a /var of 100Mb. However, I have seen posts on this list from users who have reported failures in "dist-upgrade" because the associated space requirements are much larger. What would you recommend ? After creating a "large" /var partition, I plan to create a symbolic link between /tmp and /var/tmp. ( ln -s /tmp /var/tmp ) Is this O.K. ? Thanks, Howard Mann.
